Shocking show. I wasn't a huge Hudson fan, but after the performance she gave on Tuesday, I was starting to come around. I think she was pretty incredible when she didn't go into those low, low notes. Truthfully, I was hoping that it was Fantasia going home.

I was thinking though. This may not have been all that bad for Jennifer. The outcome was so unfair that I would not be surprised if it gets a lot of media coverage. That kind of coverage could easily lead to TV spots, record deals, etc. Probably more that she would have gotten if she had, say, made it to the final 3 and got voted out then. Although this is sad for her, I think she is going to be just fine.

Plus I bet last night's show will give the public a wake up call that if they don't vote, they could lose their favorites.

I agree Papa about this may turn out to be a good thing for Hudson. I also wish it was Fantasia though.

It was such a shocker how they did the bottom 3. I thought for sure it was John Diana and Jasmine. I am glad that Simon made the comment about not taking away from Diana and Jasmine when they asked for his opinion. It was a shock but just like Simon said, Diana and Jasmine deserved to be safe.

Now for John, that is one thing I just don't understand. I would love to know who is voting for him because the only person I have talked to that think he is talented is my grandmother!

I had a feeling that when they told George to go to the top group without telling him which one it was that there was a big upset in the voting. You could tell he was uncomfortable not knowing where to go. It did look like everyone was crying last night after Jennifer left.

I too was completely shocked. When Ryan told George he was in the wrong group I think I heard everyone open their mouths in shock. If redhead John wins this I think that they should cancel the show. I did read on some other site that people think they should start voting someone off not someone on.

Gotta love this..from /tv guide~DIVA DISMISSED: American Idol fans are demanding a recount following lastnight's elimination of Jennifer Hudson, who was one of the competition's(and TV Guide Online's) clear favorites. Even more shocking: Fellowfrontrunners Fantasia Barrino and LaToya London joined Hudson in the bottomthree! On the bright side, Idol producers have finally decided to put poorJohn Stevens out of his misery by making next week's show Latin-themed.

hahahaha...That's what I was wondering? What Gloria Estefan song could John possibly sing..
